    Does anybody know if the RROD is still an issue with the models coming out now?

    The new "Jasper" models should completely remove the rrod risk. However, I think those are only on the cheaper Arcade units for now. Anandtech has a guide on how to tell if your unit is a Jasper

    #4.....

    I'm hearing the Jasper models still have some issue with the RROD, but not as high as 33% anymore as in the older 360 models. But it's closer to 10% now..... I guess 1 in 10 isn't as bad as 3 in 10..... Still kinda of high failure rate for a $200-300 hardware.... Face it.... MS doesn't know the first thing about hardware as it's a software company at heart.

    Waiting for the 60GB version to pop up again.

    120Gb and HDMI cable + black = big deal.

    BiggeyG1,
    Dell charges tax in any state where they have a warehouse or shipping center. If there isn't one, then they don't. Unfortunately, my state they do charge tax. Good deal regardless though.

    Not a bad price. Between this and the Wii it's going to be a tough decision.

    Ordered one, got it the box had been opened previously. The manufacture date was 7-27-08. I called Dell they said they would ship out another. I can only guess what was up with that.

    Just eBay the two games (say for $10 a piece) and you get an Elite for the price of a Pro. That's pretty good.

    This is a good deal for the Elite. My only gripe is still just one controller.
